That looks so sweet. Of course, if I put a vase of flowers anywhere that can be reached or climbed to, my youngest child makes sure the water is emptied out and the flowers strewn about the house. Which means the dining room mantle and the kitchen counter are about my only flower placing options. Maybe some day...

Your flowers are as sweet as the little ones who picked them for you. I wish I had your talent for flower arangements. Your eye for placement too. You have a gift. Meredith, can I ask, have you studied these things in school? I took college home ec. classes and have no where near the great eye for detail that you do. Thank you for sharing. Hope all is well with you. Roxie

What a sweet mommy you are - I can only imagine how happy it makes your little one to see how important their offerings are to you (hmm, an interesting theological parallel in there). I will try to remember this lovely gesture the next time my little one presents me with treasures from our backyard.

Your little bouquets remind me of my dear grandmother. Even into her 90s she had tiny bouquets placed (proportionately) all through her home....little sprigs of rooting Joseph's Coat, tiny pickings from great-grands, a mini rosebud too small for regular arrangements.
